syn. N. cantabricus subsp. monophyllus?

N. albicans syn of N. cantabricus subsp. monophyllus?

[David Nicholson]

Sorry Rafa I did not make myself clear. I wondered if Narcissus albicans was a synonym of N. cantabricus subsp. monophyllus

[Rafa]

I don't know David, maybe it is write in any database as a synonim. The plant that I understand as N. albicans is a plant with a hybrid origin between N. cantabricus and N. bulbocodium, but this is just my oppinion. This narcissus is publish here:

Here is N. x xanthochlorus, I don't remeber where it was published,.. It is an hybrid between N. viridiflorus (mother) and N. cavanillesii (father) recently pictured by my friend Joaquín Ramirez. Here are many other pictures of autumn Narcissi from him. Specially interesting the 19 flowers of N. elegans, amazing plant. http://www.flickr.com/photos/naturalezadeandalucia/sets/72157607466185346/

The world really does get smaller.... recently I asked permission from Joaquín Ramirez for permission to use a photograph of his in the IRG that has just gone online ( November 2011).... at that time I did not know he was a friend of Rafa's!  He was kind enough to grant permission and the photo, of the seeds of Putoria calabrica is inthe magazine.
Elsewhere in that IRG is a piece by Ian on some  winter flowering narcissus... yes, it's a small world.


The photographs of Joaquín Ramirez are truly wonderful and I urgeyou to visit his site. I hope that, with Rafa's help (my Spanish being sadly lacking) we may also persuade Joaquín to share more of his photos with the IRG in future. He is working with Rafa on other things, too!

[Rafa]

Oh yes! internet has made our world little.
Joaquín and I are studying autumn Narcissi since several years ago in south Spain, when he discover the only location of N. elegans in Peninsula iberica. He is a very generous and good person...

It's that time of year again. I feel safe in predicting that for the next 3 months these threads will be dominated by  questions & debate about the identity of various hoop petticoat daffodils.

[Rafa]

Gerd what a floriferous N. viridiflorus, it would have a bulb like an orange!

[Anthony Darby]

Perhaps Narcissus viridiflorus viridifloriforus?

[David Nicholson]

Lovely stuff Gerd.

Something a bit more common from me. Narcissus romieuxii ssp romieuxii var. mesatlanticus, the originals came from Ian Young way back in 2007. As Ian said in Log 45 (9 November 2011) they are possibly a hybrid between N. cantabricus monophyllus and N. romieuxii.
